visual aphasia
Visual aphasia, also known as alexia, refers to a neurological condition where a person has a disruption or loss of the ability to understand written or printed words or phrases due to brain damage, despite having normal vision. This type of aphasia is often associated with other language-related disorders such as agraphia, which is the inability to write. It is commonly caused by strokes, brain injuries, or diseases affecting the left side of the brain.
